Prisonthoughts.

May 7th 2003 I got the question if I saw myself as a person who had problem with authorities. The reason I got the question was because I said that I never had to live by any rules while living with my parents, and that I believed that people who grow up without rules are less tempted to break them. I still stand by that today. If you grow up somewhere where you have a specific bed-time, are not allowed to try things out and have to do this and that you'll be more tempted to try out the "forbidden".

This is one of the main reasons I never had a longing to go to China. There you're not allowed to do whatever you want - be careful what you say and what you do. People say that it's a beautiful country and I'm sure they're right, but I am me and knowing me, I'd probably say something I really shouldn't say. Then I'd end up in a Chinese jail where people touch me too much and too often and at the dawn I'd be shot.
I never felt a will to see the United States either really. Sure, there are monuments that'd be really cool to see, but I can't really say I actually WANT to see the country. (Except Alaska and Hawaii, but they're excluded.) That probably depends more on the people than on the country, but then again - it's the same with China. The people make it creepy.

I wonder if Sweden's gonna be the same once the FRA-law starts working. (FRA stands for Försvarets Radioanstalt which I suppose is similar to any kind of surveillance agency that is working "for nation's security".) The FRA-peeps want to read everything I send to someone outside of Sweden to see if anything in there is a threat to the nation. Okay... let me think... I critisise, I think, I tell people they suck, I think the goverment suck, I think the Swedish law-system sucks... The list goes on and on. Let's be reasonable here. Sweden is a country with about 9 million inhabitants. We don't have oil like Norway, our national resources are nothing compared to Finland, the Baltic countries are cheaper to hire, Germany is closer to the continent and Denmark is a lot flatter. So why would anything threat Sweden? Because the people are great? Because we don't have any poverty? Because crime is none-existant?

You know... maybe it's just me, but I really think people should have more cake. Hungry people ---> unhappy people ---> war ---> suffering ---> death. Cake ---> content people --- happiness. Happy people don't feel a need to stalk others.

Spidde - soon from a Swedish prison.
